research A splice variant in KRT71 is associated with curly coat phenotype of Selkirk Rex cats
A gene variant in KRT71 causes the curly fur in Selkirk Rex cats.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
The patient's hair was thinner and had fewer lipids due to a genetic mutation.
research Defective trophoblast function in mice with a targeted mutation of Ets2
Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.
